+ | ====== Enable CJK Text Entering ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | **additional notes by tomyjwu** | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Introduction ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | This hack and experience is done in ubuntu 8.04 with | ||
+ | * mantis 1.1.2+dfsg-8~hardy1 | ||
+ | * mysql 5.0.51a-3ubuntu5.4 | ||
+ | |||
+ | The goal is to enable CJK text input on mantis bug descriptions and notes. Two issues must be resolved: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Mantis database must store descriptions in utf8 by default | ||
+ | * Mantis communicates with mySQL using utf8 way, according to the book by herongyang | ||
+ | |||
+ | Please check the Web resources section for the book URL. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Enable utf8 communications ===== | ||
+ | * Edit the config file / | ||
+ | * add to both server and client section the default encoding | ||
+ | < | ||
+ | | ||
+ | | ||
+ | |||
+ | | ||
+ | | ||
+ | </ | ||
+ | * check setting in mysql command line (mysql -u root -p) | ||
+ | * < | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Upgrade the mantis database ===== | ||
+ | * Upgrade 3 levels according to the book by herongyang about mySQL and php. | ||
+ | * Manage mantis database by issuing following commands in mysql command line < | ||
+ | * database level | ||
+ | * altering commands < | ||
+ | * verify by < | ||
+ | * table and column level on mantis_bug_text_table and mantis_bugnote_text_table | ||
+ | * altering commands < | ||
+ | alter table mantis_bug_text_table default character set utf8; | ||
+ | alter table mantis_bug_text_table convert to character set utf8; | ||
+ | alter table mantis_bugnote_text_table default character set utf8; | ||
+ | alter table mantis_bugnote_text_table convert to character set utf8;</ | ||
+ | * verify by < | ||
+ | SHOW CREATE TABLE mantis_bug_text_table; | ||
+ | SHOW CREATE TABLE mantis_bugnote_text_table; | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Results ===== | ||
+ | Now you could add a new bug entry in the mantis using web interface and preserve the entered CJK text in utf8 format. Resulted entries are displayed correctly in web browser. Tested with Firefox browser. | ||
